OCAD U will be participating as a cultural partner at this year’s Art Toronto event at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. Now in its 18th year, Art Toronto is Canada’s international contemporary and modern art fair, presenting important artwork from leading Canadian and international galleries. This is first and foremost an entrepreneurial opportunity for OCAD U graduates to sell their work and to showcase the high calibre of talent at OCAD U.
The OCAD U booth (funded by the Ada Slaight Foundation) will feature the work of OCAD U graduates from the Drawing & Painting and Printmaking undergraduate programs:
